I'll have to add the selectseeds and burpee. The RH Shumway site has expired. I hope they renew it. If they do I'll try to remember to add them to the list as well.
Thanks for mentioning them all.

My parents buy most of their seeds from Johnnys Selected Seeds in Maine.http://johnnysseeds.com We also get them at the local farm co-op and a few other places.

A pretty cool company that sells lots of funky heirloom seeds is Baker Creek Heirloom seeds http://www.rareseeds.com we haven't gotten much from them, but they have a really cool catalog and I'd like to order some of it some day!

Cool... I'll have to take a look at those and add them to the list.

I work at a greenhouse during the summer, so normally i buy my seeds there. But on the off chance that I can't find what I am looking for, I buy from Gurneys. The have a wide variety and they are always having some sort of sale or coupon. :D

I have definitely heard a lot about Burpee, I mean they're the originals right?! However, I happen to live pretty close to another seed company that offers some of the best prices on organic and bulk seeds. Here's their site www.sustainableseedco.com

Definitely check them out if you're looking for some unique seeds!

Long overdo reply... Welcome to the site. And, thanks for the link. I had never heard of them. I have not ordered any seeds online in some time but it's always good to have more options. :)
